Cascais is a coastal town located 30 km west of Lisbon, known for its sunny, laid-back atmosphere, infused with a touch of hedonism and sophistication. Could it be described as “hippie chic”?
Visitors can enjoy the beach for half the year, and engage in activities like running, biking, or surfing throughout the year. Alternatively, they can indulge in a culinary adventure, savoring freshly grilled fish caught from the local sea. A simple train ride can lead to Santini, where one can relish some of the finest ice cream in Cascais. Moreover, the Sun Coast’s capital is an ideal spot for relaxation, offering the chance to do nothing but gaze at the sea while enjoying the social scene. It’s important to note that the town’s current glamour and allure were not always present. In fact, 150 years ago, Cascais was a deserted ghost town, which, through an extraordinary transformation akin to a magic trick, evolved into a prestigious retreat. This tour aims to illuminate these incredible and still significant changes in the Portuguese Riviera.
